Fire my soul

Arrangement #153 - "Fire my soul"


Stay @ Home composition.

Truly this lockdown is becoming more challenging to our soul. So I decided today to do a little gardening to keep my time occupied and my mind working. I cleared some unwanted bushes around the heliconia plants and collected some large fern leaves, green as well as dried ones from the garden . I feel its time for me to get back to daily cut flowers arrangements like what I used to do before since there is plenty of time at hand these days.

For today's composition I used two varieties of heliconia plants, the Red Lobster's Claw and the Heliconia latispatha variety. I name the arrangement " Fire my soul".

Heliconia latispatha

Trigger Me

Arrangement #149 ~ Trigger Me 
To trigger it I picked up a few sample of colourful foliage and cut two stalks of the Heliconia 'red lobster's claw'. That's the beauty of the Kambatik garden. Among other things it is a ready source of daily cut flowers just a step out of your door. Two varieties of coleus, a young leaf of the 'Blood Banana' and a trimmed version of the yellow palm frond makes the show. No sweat. It's just a 15 minutes effort including photography. Call it... Trigger Me!
